- A machine shop manufactures a stainless steel part that is used in an assembled product. Materials charged to a particular jobamounted to 600. At the point of final inspection, it was discoveredthat the material used was inferior to the specifications required bythe engineering department; therefore, all units had to be scrapped. Record the entries required for scrap under each of the following conditions: a. The revenue received for scrap is to be treated as a reductionin manufacturing cost but cannot be identified with a specificjob. The value of stainless steel scrap is stable and estimatedto be 125 for this job. The scrap is sold two months later forcash at the estimated value of 125. b. Revenue received for scrap is to be treated as a reduction inmanufacturing cost but cannot be identified with a specificjob. A firm price is not determinable for the scrap until it issold. It is sold eventually for 75 cash. c. The production job is a special job, and the 85 received onaccount for the scrap is to be treated as a reduction inmanufacturing cost. (A firm price is not determinable for thescrap until it is sold.) d. Only 40 cash was received for the scrap when it was sold inthe following fiscal period. (A firm price is not determinablefor the scrap until it is sold, and the amount to be received forthe scrap is to be treated as other income.)arrow_forwardLloyd Industries manufactures electrical equipment from specifications received from customers. Job X10 was for 1,000 motors to be used in a specially designed electrical complex. The followingcosts were determined for each motor: At final inspection, Lloyd discovered that 33 motors did not meet the exacting specifications established by the customer. Anexamination indicated that 18 motors were beyond repair andshould be sold as spoiled goods for 75 each. The remaining15 motors, though defective, could be reconditioned as first-qualityunits by the addition of 1,650 for materials, 1,500 for labor, and1,200 for factory overhead. Required: Prepare the journal entries to record the following: 1. The scrapping of the 18 motors, with the income from spoiledgoods treated as a reduction in the manufacturing cost of thespecific job. 2. The correction of the 15 defective motors, with the additionalcost charged to the specific job. 3. The additional cost of replacing the 18 spoiled motors with newmotors. 4. The sale of the spoiled motors for 75 each. 5. If the reconditioned motors sell for 400 each, is Lloyd betteroff reconditioning the defective motors or selling them as isfor 75 as spoiled goods?arrow_forwardCleanCom Company specializes in cleaning commercial buildings and construction sites.
